The Brawler

"'After his creation led to the deaths of his parents, the former blacksmith vowed to never again build a weapon of war. Instead, he uses his hammer to bring justice back to Middleton so that he can someday rescue his sister from the clutches of the State.""No man would dare face the mighty brawler in a close quarter combat. His sledgehammer is capable of downing some foes in a single blow, and when he activates his Wrath ability, he becomes nigh unstoppable.'"
